Stephen Waggoner

July 4, 1949 - September 25, 2024

Stephen Dale Waggoner, 75, of Indianapolis, Indiana, passed away in the presence of his family on September 25, 2024. Born on July 4, 1949, to the late Noolen E. Waggoner and Eva M. Downey Waggoner, Stephen lived a life of devotion to his family, church, and community.

Stephen was a proud graduate of Arsenal Technical High School, Class of 1967, and spent the next 52 years working for DA Lubricant. In 1969, Stephen married the love of his life, Cathy Jane (Mock) Waggoner. Their marriage of 51 years was a testament to God’s grace, enduring through life’s joys and challenges until Cathy’s passing. Together, they raised four children in a home centered around faith, love, and service to others.

Stephen was a devoted Christian who lived his faith through action. A member of several churches, he faithfully served as a Sunday school teacher and volunteer for various church events. His passion for guiding and nurturing others extended beyond the church walls, as he was also a dedicated leader in the Boy Scouts of America, actively involved in his children’s lives through scouting.

Stephen’s love and legacy continue through his family, including his brother Mark S. (Lolita) Waggoner; his children Mark A. (Nyoka) Waggoner, Kevin P. Waggoner Sr., Jeanna M. (Tim) Waggoner Hart, Matthew R. (Josh) Waggoner, grandchildren Dannielle M. Waggoner, Kevin P. (Natalie) Waggoner II, Noah M. Ashcraft, Elijah S. Ashcraft, Eva G. Waggoner, great-grandchildren Rylan L. Titus and Ezra A. Titus.

He is now reunited in Heaven with his beloved wife Cathy and his parents, rejoicing in the presence of the Lord. Stephen’s sense of humor and love will be missed and continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

A celebration of Stephen’s life will be held at a later time, honoring his faith and legacy. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Stephen’s name to the American Heart Foundation as a reflection of his lifelong dedication to service.

“Well done, good and faithful servant.” (Matthew 25:23)

Steve and Jane took us under their wings when we had been married less than two years. We attended church with them in Bellview Fl. After our son was born and I had to return to work full time Jane became Alan’s sitter. Charles joined the Army and for almost a year it was me and Alan. I would come to pick him up and Jane would say it’s okay leave him here he’s asleep. Steve must have thought he had another son ! Steve and Jane were incredible role models for us. Always loving us and praying for us. Our boys are grown yet the example they set before us will always be near. Our Father must be so happy to welcome Steve home. Much Love, Charles and Donna Prescott
